Will I need to bring formula to the hospital or will they provide it?

They'll provide it and send you home with samples too. Our hospital used Similac - all the big formula companies provide the formula in hopes that the patients will want to continue w/ thier brand once they're discharged. I've gotta say it worked for us - our son is 7 months and we still use Similac products. :-)

one thing i got warned about was that the samples provided in hospital tend to be the more expensive brands. Because parents start on these and are then reluctant to switch, they dont realise they can get much cheaper stuff in places like Costco
